Message text written by INTERNET:PALEBANO-L@rootsweb.com > Hi Cocalico is and was a township, don't think it was ever a town. Heidelberg is and was a township, it was also the earlier name of the present Schaefferstown. All of these area's are close by each other. Cocalico is in Lancaster Co. Heidelberg and Schaefferstown are Lebanon Co. Also a Heidelberg Township in Berks Co., Hope this helps. Sandy < Sandi, thank you so much for your help! I wasn't sure if Cocalico was a villiage or twp. So I guess that where in Cocalico an ancestor was would determine his distance from Schaefferstown. Thanks again, Karen

I am not that informed about what is in Lebanon Co. now, but maybe someone can enlighten me. Is/was Cocalico a town or a township? Is/was Heidelburg a town or township? How far is Cocalico from Schaefferstown? Thank you in advance. Karen Klaene <benklaene@compuserve.com> Cincinnati, OH

Hello - received some information that some records of birth and baptisms that I might be interested in are in the First Reformed Church, Lancaster, PA. Does anyone know if that church is still there - would it be under the "Lebanon" county page?. These records should go back to the late 1700's so am not sure exactly where they might be. Thank you for any suggestions - AhliveOyl

Could someone please tell me the best way to go to get probate records - I know ancestor lived in Dauphin County which later became Lebanon - do not know the date of death so that makes it harder - any suggestions - thank you - AhliveOyl

Hello Linnea - Thank you so very much for this info - my ancestor is on this list so this was a great find - very happy to have found this - much appreciated - Anne

The 1790 Dauphin Co Federal Census has now been uploaded to Rootsweb files!! Go to: <ftp://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/census/pa/dauphin/1790/> It is also indexed! -Linnea

Hi! The Social Security Death Index through Jan 1999 can now be searched at Rootsweb! You can also add a pointer to the on-line records for other researchers to find you! See the following anouncement in the latest issue of "Rootsweb Review": POST-EMs. Now you can attach a message to any of the more than 61 million records in the Social Security Death Index (SSDI) at RootsWeb by using a "post-em," developed by RootsWeb's own Randy Winch. Some suggested uses: attach notes to the records of your relatives, providing researchers with a direct link to you; add background information on an individual in the database, such as pointers to other records relating to that individual; or add a correction to an incorrect record. Check the records of individuals of interest to you often. Someone recently might have left a note there for you. To add a note to a record, do a search and click on "Post-em" at the end of a record at: <http://ssdi.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/ssdi.cgi>. Post-ems are a another example of your contributions at work. Have fun! -Linnea

This was pointed out to us continually by our tour guide (named Martin) in a recent tour of France. My dictionary lists these Martins, among others: Martin, Saint, A.D. 316?-397, French prelate, bishop of Tours 370?-397; Martin I, Saint, Italian, pope 649-655; Martin IV, French, pope 1281-1285; Martin V, Italian, pope 1417-1431. I'm sure this was enough to spread the name around. But how did the name start? I don't know. Leroy Miller
